Hello! My name is Monica, I am 27 years old, and working with children is my passion. I absolutely love it! In the past, I have nannied and babysat for four families with children ages 1, 3, 4, 5, and an infant of 9 months. I have also been a substitute teacher for elementary and middle schools, and worked as a summer camp counselor for three summers. In my spare time I love to dance, spend time in nature, read and make art. In addition, I received certification under a RIE Nurturing Nanny online course that taught me so much about respectful caregiving. Thank you for reading!

Well, I'm a mother myself, I am kind of a natural at caring for kids. I've worked as a nanny in the past, for 2 years professionally. I have been babysitting here and there for about 20 years. My child is much older now, and I find it a treat to care for little ones again. I'm very easy going, patient, and a creative problem solver. I find enormous value in reading with children and helping them learn, and I love to make these things fun for them.

Hi, I’m Zoie! I absolutely love spending time with kids and helping them learn, grow, and have fun. Babysitting has been a part of my life since I was 12, and over the years I’ve gained valuable experience caring for children of all ages. I’ve also worked as a certified swim instructor for 3 years, giving me the chance to teach kids new skills while ensuring their safety. I am CPR and First Aid certified, as well as medical grade oxygen certified, so safety is always my top priority. Beyond that, I truly enjoy creating a fun, active, and supportive environment for kids—whether that means playing sports, swimming, exploring outdoors, or just spending time learning and being creative together. My husband and I are currently in the process of becoming foster parents, which reflects how deeply I value caring for and supporting children. Along with childcare, I’m also happy to help with cooking, light cleaning, and keeping routines running smoothly for your family. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and energetic, I’d love the opportunity to help care for your little ones!

I truly love being a babysitter because caring for children has always come naturally to me and brings me a lot of joy. I genuinely enjoy their inquisitive fun and imaginative minds and I love being someone they feel safe, comfortable, and happy around. I have been babysitting and nannying on and off since I was about 15 years old, and over years that experience has grown into a career that centered around caregiving. I have over 10 years of experience also working as a CNA and caregiver, including extensive hands-on experience, supporting individuals with special needs, including autism. This background has helped me develop patience, strong communication skills, and the ability to adapt to each child’s unique needs. Families often describe me as a caring, trustworthy, and intuitive - someone who treats their children with care and respect.

Professionally I am employed as a Board Certified Autism Technician and looking to supplement my income with sitting. Prior to my employment at a local Autism center, I was employed as a Nanny for a special needs child for 6 years (2yr old- 8 yrs old) Before this, I was a full time nanny for two years to an 18 month old. I have professional training and skills in behavior and crisis management, and have worked with children who have mild to severe developmental disabilities. My work experience with young children (toddler - 12 years) includes daily care and basic needs, diaper changing, meal prep, and creative/fun activities. Initially, I focus on building rapport and basic needs, and once I've gotten to know a child and their family, I focus on activities that are fun, creative, unique, and are engaging for us to do together. Professionally I manage behavior challenges from the mild to the extreme.
